<span>On January 8, 1815, the British marched against New Orleans, hoping that by capturing the city they could separate Louisiana from the rest of the United States. Pirate Jean Lafitte, however, had warned the Americans of the attack, and the arriving British found militiamen under General Andrew Jackson strongly entrenched at the Rodriquez Canal. In two separate assaults, the 7,500 British soldiers under Sir Edward Pakenham were unable to penetrate the U.S. defenses, and Jackson’s 4,500 troops, many of them expert marksmen from Kentucky and Tennessee, decimated the British lines. In half an hour, the British had retreated, General Pakenham was dead, and nearly 2,000 of his men were killed, wounded, or missing. U.S. forces suffered only EIGHT KILLED and 13 wounded.</span>

Oil-based economy refers to the world's dependency on petroleum, natural gas and coal for energy. Electricity, diesel fuel, gasoline and kerosene are only some of the commodities that are provided by oil. However, there are negative effects of the processing to the environment. Combustion of oil by cars yield sulfur oxides, nitric oxides and carbon dioxide that participate in ozone depletion and global warming. Therefore, the more-developed nations are working on better technologies to harness renewable energy for sustainability. These energy refer to solar, hydropower, wind, and tidal resources. As of now, there are problems on the cost of developing and perfecting these technologies to maximize the energy source. Unfortunately, if the world shifts to the clean energy-economy, the less developed countries would have to catch up a great deal. These equipment are quite expensive, so for a time-being, only the more developed countries would participate and earn from it.
